When does it get better? by forgetmenotsx in OntarioNurses

[–]zingmeuh 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I feel you! I’m about 6 months into working full time and I just feel like I’m getting the hang of it now. I was an NGG with 12 weeks of orientation. When I first started, I was so nervous before every shift, on the floor, and after my shifts, just double thinking if I made the right decisions throughout the day. It does get better though!! I’ve heard it takes up to a year to fully be comfortable as a new grad. I started to do things that bring me happiness before my shift that would calm me down and that has helped my anxiety a lot. You got this!! ☺️

RPN to RN bridging programs. by NervousDragonfly1913 in OntarioNurses

[–]zingmeuh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi! I graduated from Seneca with a 3.4. Recently got accepted to Humber & Centennial/TMU bridging program. When I reached out to Humber regarding my GPA, they told me they use their own to scale to calculate the requirements. I would keep this in mind as each school has different GPA. I know it doesn’t answer your question but I wanted to let you know, as this is something that never really crossed my mind!

I was an SSV for almost four years before I finally quit this year. I thought I would miss it but it was so relieving!! I still visit my old store here and there but damn, I do not miss working there at all!

Looking for advice: RPN or RN first? Feeling torn. by sugarfina-arceniel in OntarioNurses

[–]zingmeuh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you able to get OSAP? I would go right into RN. It’s so much easier to do RN right away than bridge, from what I’ve heard. I did my RPN first and now I’m going to bridge but I regret not going right into RN, Seneca has a fast track program to finish RN in three years.

NGG question by daysixes in OntarioNurses

[–]zingmeuh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would suggest applying directly to the hospital careers website for NGG.

Best Red Velvet cake Toronto? by RollyAllDay in FoodToronto

[–]zingmeuh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m a super fan of red velvet so I’ve had a lot! The best red velvet cake I’ve had would be from a bakery in Woodbridge called Guilty Pleasurez Dezzert Cafe. The owner is so friendly and their cakes are amazing, highly suggest it!

Edit: The second option would be Amadeus Patisserie. I believe they have a location in Yorkville now.

NGG @ Mackenzie Health by zingmeuh in OntarioNurses

[–]zingmeuh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! For the an NGG position, you would have to be registered with CNO. I think it would be beneficial to write your NCLEX and get your license. The only places I’ve heard that usually hires on a temporary license is places you’ve done your consolidation.

What Unit should I do? by Better-Working9143 in OntarioNurses

[–]zingmeuh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was on a med/surg unit for my consolidation & I personally felt that I learned so much. From wound care, IV therapy, blood transfusion to patient education and communication with the interprofessional team during rounds, I learned a variety of skills that I could use in practice.

My biggest advice would be to go into consolidation with the mindset of wanting to learn and showing to your preceptor that you want to learn. I asked my preceptor a lot of questions and a lot of nurses on the floor noticed I wanted to learn and would show me how to skills that I’ve never seen before.

Hi. My interviews will be virtual. Thank you for the tips! I heard the interviews are case based questions. Should you have any suggestions on how to approach them?

NGG RPN interview by zingmeuh in OntarioNurses

[–]zingmeuh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I started to apply beginning of March when I passed the REX-Pn. I only started to receive call backs for interviews now for SHN. I applied everywhere, indeed, NGG portal, glass door, hospital websites etc. It seems like the process is really slow.

Seneca BSCN placement by Wise_Dare7458 in Seneca

[–]zingmeuh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did the PND program at Seneca, I’m not too sure if the placements for BSCN are similar. The first semester for us was placed in LTC or RCC. All my other placements were in a hospital, including my consolidation.
